Information about the maker

Frank Westcombe Elliott was born into a famous clock making family and formed his own firm FW Elliott in 1923. They are most famous for their production of the RAF sector clocks which are credited with a major part in securing victory in WWII. The factory was bombed twice during the war. After the war they supplied clocks to the Government and the GPO. The company continued into the 70's, making excellent quality mantle clocks and was still run by the Elliott family.

Condition Report

Very original except for the pendulum which is a replacement. (If anyone reading this has one of these clocks with the original pendulum I would very much appreciate details and a photo!).
The original ground to the dial is in excellent aged order and clearly showed the shadow of a removed RAF crest (photos to prove), now replaced professionally. Air Ministry label to the inside of the side door.

Cost of Restoration

Non required.
